Brazil presidential election media and polling developments

Overview

In August 2026, preparations for the Brazilian presidential election included new polling and changes to media coverage. The Quaest polling firm began a new survey commissioned by the Globo group, involving 2,004 interviewees, to capture political trends.

Following this, TV Globo announced a restructured format for election coverage. Presidential candidate interviews will be presented as independent attractions rather than segments within the Jornal Nacional program. The broadcaster scheduled interviews for late August, with additional sessions and debates planned for October if a second-round runoff occurs. Leading candidates Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Flávio Bolsonaro had not yet confirmed their participation in these specific sessions.
